Boonah ranks 328th in Queensland out of 449 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 220 registered systems to date. Growth has been strong, with 14 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 100% increase on the previous year, making Boonah one of Queensland's faster-growing solar postcodes.
Collectively, Boonah's 220 solar systems avoid an estimated 2,178 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 1,037 cars from the road. This is estimated using Queensland's average grid emissions intensity of 810 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
